Road Warriors

Mission: Road Warriors: Bandit Apocalypse

This Mad Mel sounds like a reasonable man. Lucky gives you this mission which will take you out of the headland and move you on with your quest. It's a pretty brutal one, and the fact that it's based in your vehicle nullifies the usual edge power leveling and looting might have. You'll drive into a small arena full of bandits on foot and in vehicles. You need to be a sharp shooter and a fast mover. It helps a lot to thin the wave down to one enemy, and then drive around and charge up your shields. The Rocket Launcher is better for clumsy shooters, but the Machine Gun can give an edge to those that can effectively fight at a distance, since it has better accuracy at long range.

The final wave arrives with Mad Mel supported by Outriders. This is brutally hard, we'll be honest. You need to take out the support guys first, which luckily don't respawn if you die. Mad Mel himself is considerably better armored than the rest. The best way to fight him is to get behind him, but obviously that isn't sustainable for long, so make the most of it. Once it's just you and him, it is possible to build up enough speed to do laps and recharge your shields, so this will help make things much easier.

Afterwards, you can go meet up with the Claptrap on the other side of the gate, and he'll send you to New Haven to rendezvous with Helena Pierce, waiting behind a desk inside.
